The company says that the design philosophy of the TT+ series is based upon offering the sound engineer solutions and tools that are ready to use. These include the ability to sustain very high power with highly efficient sound pressure levels. "The main design ethos is being, able to offer the audio engineer extremely high audio quality and system efficiency," say the company
RCF says: "Intense sound levels are created with extremely high definition and extended dynamic range. The use of modern construction materials have resulted in mechanical weight ratios that are light for practical flying and portability. The TT+ line consisted of five different true active models, each one designed for a specific application".
The TTL33-A line array module is a wide, constant directivity, coverage angle, with six high power neodymium transducers, three high power switching amplifiers and 96kHz, 24bit, floating point DSP. It houses a new compression driver unit, the ND1411-MT, which has been developed by RCF specifically for array applications: powered by a 750W switching power supply and three digital amplifiers (500W mid-bass, 500W mid-range and 250W compression driver. All the amplifiers and digital processing are housed in an aluminium extrusion, external to the cabinet for best heat dissipation.
The TT22-A is a high output 2-way speaker and the system's most flexible and powerful tool, say RCF. The careful acoustic design, plus the high quality transducers and powerful amplifier make this an ideal solution for live sound situations, playback and monitoring, say the company. Features 750W switching amplifiers, high power neodymium transducers, analogue input board, soft limiters and RMS protection.
The TT25-A, offers "incredibly high output and dynamics with extreme linearity and accuracy", say the company, while its compact size makes it suitable for sound reinforcement, live performance and events. It features 1500W switching amplifiers.
The TTS 18-A is very high output compact, bandpass subwoofer. Ideal in combination with the TT+ 2-way systems or used in multiples for a very flexible system. The TT18-A and the TTS28-A - both boast RCF's "superior" woofer, the RCF LF 18N401.
TTS28-A is a reference double 18" bass reflex subwoofer, aimed at touring applications and is "one of the smallest and lightest double 18" available" say RCF.
RCF has also designed a full rigging system for the TT33-A Line Array module that is already fully EU Certified.
The software package for the TT33-A is designed to assist with the set up procedures. RCF has developed a complete prediction software package, which enables a complete two-dimensional simulation of the behaviour of the TTL33-A cabinets. It also suggests the correct subwoofer combinations.
The system curvature angles and sound projection data are computed with maximum sound pressure levels for the given building design originally inputted. The software will allow simulations of up to a maximum of 16 TTl33-A mid-high cabinets, say the company.
